Fracture
03:15
|
|||
Every synapse fires in acceptance of a distant truth
My concept of self, pulled out at the roots
A frail voice inside my mind
Begs for release
Twisting inside of me
The smallest fractures in my body lead to collapse
Falter underneath the impact of careless steps
Pieces of my life defined by loss and regret
Returning moments and recurring thoughts
In a twist of fate
Whispers grow
And cut their way out of my skull
Threatened by the memories
of who i used to be
I search inside myself
And find an empty space
Where peace should rest
Trapped in a dream
I’d give anything to forget
I count the days as they pass
Retreated from the coldest stares
Self descending as i turn my back, Consuming any light
I’m not afraid to die
I’ve lost my will to fight

Sew my eyes shut so I can’t see
an Illusion i just can’t comprehend
A thousand different images
that i’ll never erase from my memory
a thousand reasons why i’ll never trust again
I can feel it
Ripping/Pulling/Tearing
At every aching bone
An unspoken thought
I can feel it
Every broken promise tortures my soul
Lay me on a bed of nails and I’ll call it home
I engrave your betrayal
and peel back flesh
To expose these braided veins
that carry every ounce of sorrow
Tortured by every breath I take
Desperation creeping in
Light fades
Infected wounds never heal
They turn black and rot away
with anger and despair
Leaving scars in complex patterns
of hatred in their place
It’s never enough to forget

Paranoia Bleeds
02:36
|
|||
Overtaken by a sickness
You have allowed to spread
Paranoia bleeding through your skin
Guilt flows through your veins
Corroding every artery
Heaven on earth
Is out of reach
I call your name
In an act of desperation
Insects in your mind begin to swarm
Every emotion awake
When convenience strikes
You shift the blame on me
Twisted and frayed,
Your reflection blurs my own
One moment of weakness is all it takes
a temporary lapse of strength
I watch you fall frame by frame to your death
Carried to earth by crooked wings
Twist the truth to match your mangled image
You are fraying at the edges
An enemy to yourself
Acts of aggression are nothing more than cries for help
I will weaponize the pain you’ve caused to free myself

Visions of Hostility
01:56
|
|||
A complex image
is reflected in your self
An outdated concept defined by fear
I bite down my tongue
to hold back rage
What did I do to deserve this?
I’ll never forget how I felt
So weak and worthless
I don’t have the strength to forgive
Every empty promise spat from your mouth my inheritance of shame
I’m drowning in doubt
The pain never fades
It only slips away
A sad excuse for a man
Burning in your selfishness
No where else to turn
A life once cherished, rotting in dirt
I question myself day to day
Was I enough to love?
I tore myself apart to give you all i’ve got
Forfeit your life
No strength to forgive
Shattered memories
Splinter into visions of hostility
The pain never fades
It only slips away

In Cleansing Fire
02:52
|
|||
Living in fear, dying in vain
Desensitized
Gasping for air
Fighting for life
Reaping a harvest
From poisoned soil
Stagnant; torn
In the name of corrupt ideals
Encased in glass
Allowed to exist
Thriving selfishness
There is blood on our hands
From the casualties of our own ignorance
Despite our so called progress
History repeats in cycles
The body count has become
The currency of power
Desensitized
We suffocate
Gasping for air
Encased in glass
We suffocate
The days drag on
The walls close in
Born into fear
To die in vain
Vessels to carry the pain
Living in fear
and too weak to fight,
We’re complicit through our apathy
Dying for nothing
Everything will burn
In a war of ideals
This sickness will be purged
Everything will burn in cleansing fire

Numb (Transfuse)
03:53
|
|||
Take your pain as my own,
Let it seep through every pore
as it consumes me
I’d give all I have to feel my nerves
burning with the pain of loss.
My selfishness has become
A conduit to your suffering,
The needle under nail.
Seething
The disappointment felt within yourself;
projections of all your greatest flaws
Fear, doubt, grief and regret
Drain this blood from my veins
It carries resentment
Remnants of the pain I felt
Now calloused and cold
A shell of my former self
Let go and forget
The agony and unrest
Relieve yourself of the
Fear, doubt, grief and regret
I am numb to the ache
Numb to the sadness
Numb to the misery
Drain this blood from my veins
it carries resentment
remnants of the pain i felt
I am numb
Numb to sadness
Numb to the misery

The Edge of Every Lie
02:13
|
|||
Forced words of remorse sear my throat,
as embers of empty apologies
turn to ashes at your ears
Incinerating my will to compromise
Your visage mirrored
across a thousand shards of broken glass
Reflections of the victim
you’ve made yourself to be
Twisting every word into a blade,
The edge of every lie you speak
Carves and lacerates the truth from me
A liars tongue
in the mouth of a coward
Blood will stain the path you take
and remain
as the grave of every choice you made

Disassemble Reassemble
02:41
|
|||
Tear my skin
Gouge my eyes
Sever my tongue
Scorch my nerves
Disassemble
Relieved of form in favor of peace
A replicant figure of silent release
Disassemble
Another body
A frame, an empty shell
Another home
Where my spirit dwells

Cost of Sacrifice
03:40
|
|||
Worse days are coming
I can see it in your stare
We feel resentment start to settle
Disintegrating a day at a time
Foundations crumble
Before my eyes
I am a well for you to draw from
Far past capacity
Under the surface
I decay
Cracks in your frame precede a flood of regret
Panic twists its shape beneath the surface
Fear grows in inches
And shatters me into fragments of a whole
I can’t allow to bloom
Hands worn raw
From holding onto hope that things could change
I’ll push you away for your own sake
And try to find peace in the wreckage
No trust left in myself
The sun will cauterize our wounds in time
Parts of a whole have shattered into jagged and serrated shards
Cutting me open as i struggle to hold them together
A thousand incisions will bleed me slow enough
For me to watch every passing moment of regret in my mind
Grow into months and years of bitterness
though it comes at a price
I’ll find peace when i close my eyes
In knowing that without me
You will find a better life
The sun will cauterize our wounds in time
At the cost of sacrifice
